  • Constructing and Performing an On-Air Radio Identity in a Changing Media Landscape
    CONSTRUCTING AND PERFORMING AN ON-AIR RADIO IDENTITY IN A CHANGING MEDIA LANDSCAPE A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by David F. Crider January 2014 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Nancy Morris, Advisory Chair, Department of Media Studies and Production Dr. Patrick Murphy, Department of Media Studies and Production Dr. Donnalyn Pompper, Department of Strategic Communication Dr. Catherine Hastings, External Member, Susquehanna University ii © Copyright 2014 by David F. Crider All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT The radio industry is fighting to stay relevant in an age of expanding media options. Scholarship has slackened, and media experts say that radio’s best days are in the past. This dissertation investigates how today’s radio announcer presents him/herself on the air as a personality, creating and performing a self that is meant for mass consumption by a listening audience. A participant observation of eleven different broadcast sites was conducted, backed by interviews with most key on-air personnel at each site. A grounded theory approach was used for data analysis. The resulting theoretical model focuses on the performance itself as the focal point that determines a successful (positive) interaction for personality and listener. Associated processes include narrative formation of the on- air personality, communication that takes place outside of the performance, effects of setting and situation, the role of the listening audience, and the reduction of social distance between personality and listener. The model demonstrates that a personality performed with the intent of being realistic and relatable will be more likely to cement a connection with the listener that leads to repeated listening and ultimately loyalty and fidelity to that personality.

  • K-Earth 101 40Th Anniversary
    CITY OF LOS ANGELES K-Earth 101 40th Anniversary WHEREAS, K-Earth 101 is a U.S. oldies radio station located in Los Angeles, California, broadcasting to the Greater Los Angeles Area. Its signal covers an extremely large area, due in part to height upon Mt. Wilson, _..Jl and sometimes can be heard as far south as San Diego and Tijuana, as far east as Victorville, as far west as ~ Santa Barbara and as far north as Baker, California; and ~ WHEREAS, KRTH first signed on August 11, 1941 with the call letters K45LA, broadcasting on 44.5 MHz """"":"""' FM. After World War II, when the FCC mandated the 88-108 MHz range, the station was moved to 99.7 FM, ·­(~ and the call letters were changed to KHJ-FM, after its then-sister AM station KHJ. In 1948, KHJ-FM moved y\1!1>-"""' again to its current broadcast frequency of 101.1 FM, today making it Los Angeles' longest running, continuotCC: FM broadcast station; and CJ WHEREAS, in 1972, there was a switch to what was then called a "gold" format, featuring older hit songs from the past. At the time, this was a novel idea since most stations played current music, with a few older songs mixed in; and WHEREAS, with the switch in format came a new moniker, "K-Earth 101," which was named after the first "Earth Day" which had debuted to much fanfare the year before. The call letters were thus switched to KRTH. The jingle, "K-Earth 101" was also introduced at this time.

  • Tina Delgado Is Alive!
    What does a Top 40 Radio DJ, hallucinogenic drugs, go-go girls, cannibals and the dark side of pop culture all have in common? When average teen Bobby finds the mysterious words “Tina Delgado Is Alive!” on a button in a thrift store, what follows is a wild safari into the suburban jungle of cult classic America, where he will either discover the truth or descend into madness. 2 Playwright’s Note: B-Sides & Rarities No one would ever mistake this play for a serious biopic on the life of Donald Steele Revert, and for good reason. This play is not about the man but about the myth. The idea was born when I randomly found a slogan button in a head shop in Los Angeles that read “Tina Delgado Is Alive!” It was in the same bin with all the hippie flower power memorabilia, but that phrase jumped out at me. I went home and Googled it only to find that this anonymous slogan was once the catchphrase for a disk jockey in the 1960s named “The Real Don Steele.” From there, I found the theme song for his KHJ radio show. The recording mostly consists of a woman screaming “Tina Delgado is alive, alive!” on repeat. Researching the station’s history, I was never able to find out where Steele came up with the line or what it’s supposed to mean.
